-Please note that the version of wxMac in CVS is more robust and nearly feature-complete compared with the packaged 2.0 release.
-Until a new release is made, it is recommended that you download the wxMac 2.3.1 <a href="http://www.wxwindows.org/dl_mac2.htm#dev">development snapshot</a> or the sources from the <a href="http://www.wxwindows.org/cvs.htm">CVS trunk</a>.

+<h3><a name="release">Where should I download wxMac from?</a></h3>
+Please see the <a href="dl_mac2.htm">downloads page</a>.
+The version of wxMac in CVS advances quickly so it is recommended that you download the
+the sources from the <a href="cvs.htm">CVS trunk</a>.
+There is also a wxMac 2.3.1 <a href="dl_mac2.htm#dev">development snapshot</a>.

+<h3><a name="findericon">How do I add an icon to my application?</a></h3>
+
+If you have Mac OS X, you have the icns editor somewhere in the
+Utilities folder. Create an icon using this tool and DeRez it, so that you have a .r
+file with a 'icns' resource with id (-16455). Include this .r file in
+your project and in the CodeWarrior Settings add a check mark under Linker:Output
+Flags/Finder Flags/Has Custom Icon.
+<P>
+
+<h3><a name="switching">How can I easily switch between different versions of wxWindows in CodeWarrior?</a></h3>
+
+Sometimes you want to test your application against different versions
+of wxWindows, for example a stable version of wxWindows versus a development version.
+The easiest way to do this is to create a symbolic path.<P>
+
+Under Edit-Preferences in General:Source Trees, type a name (for example WXWIN)
+and choose a path for it. Now reselect your include and lib paths for a last
+time, in the settings for each configuration, but make them relative to the symbolic name.
+<P>
+
+From now on you can just change the path associated with the symbolic name.
